Chapter 151 Landing at the Naval Base
Rebecca is currently a pure swordsman, much purer than Vic. Vic is a person with special abilities that no one else knows about, and his speed is enhanced by his abilities, making it abnormally fast.
Rebecca will have one less option to improve her strength, and it will take more than a few years to reach the top of kendo. She does not have the kendo talent like Mihawk.
Her physique and domineering aura are not natural talents, so if Rebecca wants to reach top combat power, she must take other paths, and a top-level devil fruit is the main choice.
Why did Momotosagi Madoka appear as a candidate for admiral in the original novel? Did she become a candidate after Fujitora and Green Bull became admirals? Obviously not.
When Aokiji and Akainu were still admirals, Momosagi and Chaton were already candidates for admiral. Why did the navy prefer to recruit two people who showed no loyalty to be admirals facing the sea instead of promoting Momosagi and Chaton to be admirals?
That's because Momosagi and Chatun's strength is still not enough to stand on their own. Chatun doesn't know, but Momosagi has not shown that she is a fruit ability user. She is introduced as a swordsmanship and domineering.
Her talent is very strong, but her strength is not enough, otherwise she would not be considered as a candidate for admiral. If she really has a strong fruit ability, the navy would not have to let two outsiders be admirals. Therefore, when the talent is not up to the top, it is necessary to seek help from external forces, and the devil fruit is a good choice.
Vic also wants Rebecca to eat a powerful fruit, but this requires luck, so he can only wait until he becomes stronger before doing those things.
Victor also wanted to see if there was any way to strip away the power of the devil fruit. Since Blackbeard could do it, Victor felt there was no reason why he couldn't do it. It would be easier to find a solution if he knew the principle.
"Rebecca, don't think about the devil fruit now. You are already stronger than your peers. As long as you learn everything the teacher teaches, you can become a strong person. Don't be impatient!"
Vic was really afraid that Rebecca would get stuck in a rut, go to extremes when she saw that his strength was too strong, and insist on keeping up with his pace.
"Well, I just feel that the gap between you and me is getting bigger and bigger!" Rebecca said in a low voice.
"I am just releasing all my previous accumulation now. There won't be much improvement for a long time in the future. You will definitely catch up. I believe in you!" Vic encouraged.
"Yeah!" Rebecca became full of energy after hearing what Vic said.
"Yes, I can become an admiral even though I am a pure taijutsu expert. And what about Garp? Are you still afraid that you can't become stronger?
As long as you work hard, you will be able to bear fruit sooner or later. Vic said it very well, believe in yourself! "Zefa also encouraged.
Zephyr has the most say in this matter. Sengoku is a person with special abilities, and Garp is a perverted physical strength master. Zephyr is stuck between the two of them. If he doesn't believe in himself, doesn't insist on making progress, and gives up on himself, then there wouldn't be the existence of the admiral who was not killed now.
Zephyr's talent must be very high, but not as abnormal as Garp's. Talent determines the upper limit, and hard work determines the lower limit. Talent is difficult to change, but hard work can pulsate according to one's own will.
Zefa's words gave great encouragement to several people, because they were eyewitnesses and were convincing. Vic's words were not so convincing because he was a cheater.
Vic could only smile helplessly and said, I work very hard, okay? I have both talent and hard work, and I would be sorry if I were not strong.
Wendy didn't say anything, she already knew that Vic had set his eyes on a devil fruit for her, and her main goal now was to awaken her domineering power.
The last time she fought the Flame Pirates on the island, she used physical skills, but she didn't have a particularly strong opponent. Although she felt a sense of urgency, she still didn't gain anything in terms of domineering.
They had finished their lunch while chatting and laughing. Vic still didn't leave anything behind and even chewed up the bones. The bones of sea kings contain a lot of spiritual energy, which is very nutritious.
You can't exercise right after eating, and this also applies to this world, so Zefa didn't let the students start training right away. Now is the free time, and the students are walking out of the restaurant one after another.
......
Soon, two days passed and the warship sailed to an island with a naval base. It was impossible for the pirates on the warship to be kept on the ship forever. Loners like Aokiji who rode a bicycle alone on the sea usually chose to kill the pirates directly when they encountered them.
The voyage over the past two days was not particularly peaceful. The Grand Line is indeed the Grand Line. Not only is the weather unpredictable, but there are also many pirates.
Vic and his crew encountered two groups of pirates in two days, but Vic did not take action. They were all players who were not particularly strong. Zephyr was also left to the students to deal with. Rebecca and Wendy also joined the battle, and Rebecca fought with the strongest among them.
The trainees took all the pirates on the warship to the island, including the pirates from the two pirate groups they encountered later. A large group of people marched towards the naval base in a mighty manner.
The pirates all knew their fate. Most of them showed fear, a small number had regret on their faces, and only a few looked unconvinced, thinking that the navy had attacked them without moral principles.
Vic only saw one person whose behavior was different from the others, and that was Kyle. Unlike the hysteria on the day he was captured, Kyle had been acting very terrified these past two days, as if he would soon die. But today after getting ashore, Kyle was abnormally calm. He didn't look like a prisoner who was about to be imprisoned in Impel Down. He was just like a passerby. Vic found it a little strange and wondered what kind of mental journey Kyle had gone through.
Kyle was worried that he would be killed to silence him before, but now he is about to be transferred, and it is only a matter of time before he is sent to Impel Down. By then, it will be their territory, and it will be much easier to get out, so now he is not afraid anymore.
Soon, everyone arrived at the naval base under the curious gaze of the islanders. The highest commander of the naval base was a brigadier general.
"Teacher Zefa, it's you. I received a call earlier saying that a group of pirates would be sent to Impel Down. I was still guessing who they were. How did you find time to come out and catch pirates?" When Brigadier General Bastiu saw that the person coming was led by Zefa, he immediately took a few quick steps forward to greet him.
Victor knew this man. He was very recognizable because he wore a horn mask with holes all over his face. He had long dark red hair that was flowing freely, and he was over two meters tall. Eighteen years later, he would be promoted to the position of vice admiral in the headquarters of the Navy. He would go to Dressrosa with Fujitora to pursue the alliance between the Straw Hat Pirates and the Heart Pirates. The vice admiral was not very strong, and was killed instantly by Sabo.
